credit to zewaka for the idea of using underlays
turns the lighting object movables that were unnecessary and increased maptick into a datum which then applies and removes an underlay in update(). also applies a lot of general lighting clean ups (mostly using as anything in loops and fixing single letter var names).
multiz is a little different by necessity, now only the bottom turf's lighting matters in the brightness of the top turf unlike master where the bottom turf's lighting object is hidden from the vis_contents of the top turf. there are still some kinks to iron out here though, since currently objects suspended in openspace (like tram platforms) look bad and glass floors look bad too
only thing i have left to do is make multiz work (well)
UPDATE: multiz now appears the same as far as i can tell, its possible there are other situations in which its different but datum mats work and it automatically updates if the turf below changes. now i just need to make the system less finnicky if at all possible (and possibly merge managed_turf_vis_content with managed_overlays maybe?)
new update: its basically equivalent to normal multiz as far as i can tell (visually at least, in the circumstances ive tested so far)
NEW NEW UPDATE: turfs no longer have the VIS_HIDE vis_flag and multiz works without stacking the lighting from the floor below! so this shouldnt have any overt drawbacks to master anymore
1 needless movable per tile is terrible for maptick. this is probably a larger improvement than my emissive blocker change in terms of maptick. im guessing we'd get around 0.6 average maptick per player after this where currently we get 0.85 or so
Edit: according to lemon, sybil reached 0.71 maptick per person when tm'd with this
if this is a big enough improvement i might finally be able to get rid of the Gone discord avatar
Sourced from #59118 and a cursed project I'll pr later, This pr contains a lot of harddel fixes for stuff that pops up after a player interacts with something. I'm not gonna list them all here because there's something like 60 130, check the commit log if you're curious
Oh and I moved ref tracking screaming to a separate define, and made some optimizations to the thing in general. I think that's it, this pr is a bit of a frankenstine
Removed a bunch of back reference lists that were either entirely unused, or contained references that could be found within the datums contained in other lists.
lighting corner datums now get deleted with unused.
light sources no longer track lighting corners where the appiled light rounds to 0.
Fix lighting on turfs that gained dynamic lighting mid round. lazy init corner datums.
these two are related. by decoupling corner datums from the turfs dynamic lighting state, we can use them to know what level of light a non-dynamic light turf should have once it gains dynamic light.
Also should free up some memory not storing these datums in maint. Corner datums only exist on a turf that has light cast upon it by the dynamic lighting system.
Lighting corners are now lazy inited and deleted. they should always (and only exist) if there is a light source shining on it within range (even if the turf has no dynamic lighting). This is needed to support turfs that become lighting enabled mid round. On the plus side, they will no longer be generated on full dark turfs.
Moves all opacity var manipulation to a proc which sends a signal.
light_blocker element for movable opaque atoms made, which tracks its movement and updates the affected turfs for proper lighting updates.
has_opaque_atom boolean replaced by the opacity_sources lazylist to keep track of the sources, and a directional_opacity which serves a similar function but also allows for future expansion with on-border opaque objects (not yet implemented).
Some opacity-related sight procs optimized as a result of this.
Some variables moved to the object's definition.
A define or two added into the mix for clarity.
Some code cleaning, like turning booleans into their defines.
One file renamed for clarity.

balance: Mechs no longer block sight. It's a non-trivial cost for the lighting system with little to no gain.

About The Pull Request
Just moving /turf/proc/get_corners() into its only caller, slightly shuffled.
Also #defining /proc/GetRedPart() etc, which should flatten down to a copytext+text2num operation with #51005. Also defining parse_light_color() since it has two callers and does something trivial (splits #ff0000 into three luminance vars).
cl Naksu
code: Lighting corner updates are ever so slightly faster.

This reverts commit 2817a1737b.
These weren't needed, and ran thousands of times per second during high lighting activity, and were pretty high up in the line by line profile of lighting for what was basically a noop.
This *seems* to be a decent speed up just in the appearent time it takes break all lights to process, and dview wasn't really needed here.
Minor oddies can occur on bigger lights near their edges, but not enough to justify the extra cost.
Rather then remove the light from all tiles, then re-add the light to all tiles, we just go thru each tile and diff the light level from the last value we added to it. (since this is tracked)
This cut the proc calls for updating lights in half.
Lighting objects now default to full brite rather then full dark so shuttles aren't as immersion breaking when they transit.
Made lighting more agressive about clearing empty lists.
